Yasser Arafat has passed away... or maybe not?

They just told Bush on CNN, he looks like he was about to cry.

Shit's gonna hit the fan in Palestine now.

Edit: French hospital spokesman denies Arafat is dead.

well, it certainly wouldn't be a bad thing

^ you are fuckin joking right?

[Lincoln]

^^That's what I would have said.

Mauzip, I don't think you understand the Israel/Palestine issue very well considering all your posts I've read on it.

I think it might open doors for peace in that area and that the next Palestian leader will be more open to negotiate.

i see more violence but not riots, riots are usually caused by an extreme emotion or outrage at something...dying of natural causes won't cause people to riot...
